Good morning. I really don't understand nearly anything people "do" with AI. Coding? Sure. Generating slop pics and vids? Check. But... WTF else is it even good for? I'm seriously confused, si...

If you are not using ai to code, you are 10x less productive than someone who does. There is no way 1 person could have built what I built in the time I built it with the experience I have without using ai. Ai has helped me code everything. That doesn't mean all people that use AI for coding are good at computer science, engineering or architecture. If you don't have that kind of brain, and you're just one shotting crummy apps with no maintenance afterwards, I can see how you would have this opinion. And that IS the majority of people vibe coding right now so it certainly comes off like it's just bad.

Just because some people are smashing their hands with hammers and using them on screws does not mean the hammer is a bad tool. Corpos out here hawkin as many hammers as they can. They don't care if you'd can use it effectively. They just sell hammers and business is booming. So I can't blame them.

Yeah, sure, I get that. The issue isn't so much the tool as what is being done with it. Tools without skill, as you very aptly put it, is going to be worse than doing nothing, IMO. I just don't understand wtf people are doing with it. I don't code. I'm not having it generate slop. Wtf can I do...
